The Chillventa CONGRESS launches on 10 October with four parallel tracks, on site and as a live stream. “Tradespeople especially are an extremely important target group for Chillventa, so we are incredibly pleased that these extra supporting programme items, combined with the innovations and solutions of the more than 800 exhibitors, will give them yet another reason to visit. As well as three exhibitor forums, special presentations, guided tours and the high-calibre congress programme, we are looking forward to new features like the forum “A practical guide to digitisation for craftspeople”, the Job Corner, and an international skills competition,” says Elke Harreiß, Exhibition Director Chillventa at NürnbergMesse. New forum: “A practical guide to digitisation for craftspeople” “The new event highlight for all trade businesses: In the forum “A practical guide to digitisation for craftspeople” in Hall 8, Stand 8-528, tradespeople from a range of disciplines will be interviewed about the digital strategies and solutions they have implemented in real life and that can be adopted by other businesses. They provide genuine insights into how they work with networked systems, improve their efficiency and productivity, and gain more time and revenue as a result. Experts with a background in technology, industry and science will also discuss the concrete opportunities that businesses of all sizes in various trade segments can exploit in future by using cutting-edge digital technology. Applications, Training & Codes of Practice Forum Apart from this new forum, three thematically structured exhibitor forums also provide trade visitors with information about novel solutions and approaches. In Hall 9, Stand 9-550, the 57 presentations will focus on applications, training and professional development as well as laws, standards and codes of practice. The highlights include topics such as leak detection, recovery of refrigerants. circular economy, new refrigerants and refrigerant blends, and the transport of medical products. In a series of presentations in English, eurammon will inform system engineers, designers and operators about current developments and experiences with natural refrigerants. Refrigeration Technology Forum Halle 7A, Stand 7A-616 is the first port of call for all refrigeration technology enthusiasts. The highlights from the 53 presentations include “Challenges, tips and solutions for pump selection when using R-744 and R-717 in industrial refrigeration”, “The historical development of connection technology in refrigeration and air conditioning” and “Process-safe brazing of copperchromium nickel steel joints with deep induction”. Air conditioning, Ventilation and Heat Pumps Forum This time round, the third exhibitor forum in Hall 4A, Stand 4A-401 will put the spotlight on the topical issue of heat pumps. The highlights include: “Industrial heat pump for up to 165°C, “First performance results of Heaten’s high-temperature industrial heat pump”, “Presentation of the R-744 AW and W/W heat pump” and “Heat pump certification”. In a series of lectures, the FGK (Professional Association Building AC) will explore the replacement of fans as a way of improving efficiency, while the VDMA will provide information on filters and indoor air quality. Energy saving and efficiency, filter technologies and indoor air quality will also be discussed in this forum, which offers interested visitors a total of 51 presentations. Moderated by trade journal publisher Bauverlag (KKA & tab), the Expert Talks forum has specialists from the sector leading discussions on topics like refrigerants, the recruitment of skilled personnel, material shortages, and digital transformation. All four forums combined serve up more than 170 presentations by experts on each day of the event. The “session finder” provides a detailed overview of the four forums and the Chillventa CONGRESS. Visitors can use its various filters to put together the sessions that suit them best. New feature for employers and skilled personnel: the mehrmacher Job Corner The shortage of skilled tradespeople is also affecting the refrigeration and air conditioning sector. As the main industry platform, Chillventa aims to provide active support with this challenge, and this year has launched a new Job Corner in partnershipwith recruitment platformmehrmacher. At the dedicated area in Hall 9, Stand 9-660, companies presenting themselves as attractive employers will connect with professionals with specific skillsets. The reverse recruiting approach is used, i.e., firms apply to skilled personnel to fill their job vacancies. Prospective employees can register to receive relevant job offers from the employers. Employers also gain insights into how to position themselves for the future. Special presentation “Heat Pump Innovation Lounge” “This special presentation in Hall 4A, Stand 4A-305 is geared towards all heat pump manufacturers and installers. Experts from the AIT (Austrian Institute of Technology) will present innovative methods, comprehensive services and state-of-the-art laboratory infrastructure, covering issues from product development to accredited testing. They will focus on the issue of noise immission from airsource heat pumps, research and development into refrigerants with low greenhouse gas potential, and heat pumps for industrial applications, where the AIT uses innovative methods such as augmented or virtual reality. Special presentation “Handling flammable refrigerants” This special display area in Hall 4, Stand 4-405 will provide theoretical information and practical demonstrations of the necessary components, tools, PPE and leakage risks associatedwith flammable refrigerants. The focus is on raising awareness about the proper handling of flammable refrigerants and safe work practices on refrigeration, AC and heat pump systems. Guided tours at Chillventa 2022 This year, the fair will once again include professionally guided tours. Anyone wishing to take part in the guided tours conducted by trade journal KK DIE KÄLTE + Klimatechnik can register for the slots listed below: • Refrigeration technology (11-13 October, daily at 10:00) • AC and ventilation technology (11-13 October, daily at 13:00) • Special tour for trainees and apprentices (11 October – fully booked) Emerging talents show off their capabilities in two professional skills competitions A premiere: Refrigeration and air conditioning are focussing on sustainable solutions Foto: NürnbergMesse / Frank Boxler Chillventa is finally back Foto: NürnbergMesse / Thomas Geiger Continued from Page 1 Read more on page 10
